The Commander's Useless Wife Is Actually a Hidden Boss!-Chapter 7 - 00: Are You Going to Take a Bath?

In the manor, an exclusive military flyer landed unobstructed at the front gate, and the young and handsome aide-de-camp hastened down from the flyer, intending to open the door for Fu Xing who was sitting in the back seat, but the door had already opened automatically.

Fu Xing, in his crisp and austere military uniform, stepped down from the flyer.

The aide-de-camp snapped to attention with a salute.

Fu Xing nodded.

With efficient movements, the aide-de-camp drove the flyer away.

The master had returned, and the housekeeper robot, already instructed, stood at the entrance to welcome him; the lights of the manor sequentially lit up with Fu Xing's return.

"Master, welcome home." The robot's sweet voice made Fu Xing's eyebrows slightly furrow.

"Hmm?"

He remembered that when he had left, the robot had used its factory-default mechanical voice.

It must have been Fu Tian who came to change it, that kid!

Fu Xing shook his head but then remembered the little wife waiting for him back at the mansion, and his handsome, indifferent face grew even colder.

Accustomed to the bustle of military affairs and the solitude of the stars, he had never considered marriage, let alone what it would be like to have an extra woman in his life.

According to the housekeeper, Lin Fu was nothing like what he had investigated: quiet, cautious, insecure, and prepared to leave at any moment.

"Ha!" he laughed unconsciously.

A marriage made with a "Purple Wish Token" could hardly be left at a moment's notice.

Returning to the bedroom, Fu Xing stood in front of the wardrobe and began unfastening his military uniform buttons one by one. Suddenly, he noticed movement behind him and turned around sharply to see a woman wearing his bathrobe staring blankly at him.

Fu Xing's brain went blank for an instant.

But he reacted even faster, "Lin Fu?"

Lin Fu nodded mechanically, still staring at the half-removed military uniform on Fu Xing.

The military uniform, which already had a sense of abstinence on him, was now half undone, revealing lean but powerful shoulders and strong arms with perfect lines.

The impact on Lin Fu was overwhelming; she could hardly breathe.

Okay! She admitted she had a thing for faces and physiques.

Oh my goodness! She was in love.

"Hmm?" Fu Xing raised his eyebrows in confusion, only then noticing that Lin Fu was intensely gazing at his body with fiery eyes, a teasing smile just beginning to play at the corners of his mouth. The amused and inexplicably sweet feeling in his heart grew stronger.

It was not new for him to be stealthily watched, but to be stared at so openly and ardently like Lin Fu was doing was indeed a first for him.

"Do you like what you see?" he asked earnestly.

"Yes, I like it."

Lin Fu spoke before her brain could catch up, looking up to meet Fu Xing's deep lake-like eyes and the teasing smile at his lips. Her cheeks flushed, feeling as if fireworks exploded in her heart, she wished she could dive into a hole and hide.

Lin Fu, covering her face, ran back to the bathroom quickly. Looking in the mirror at her blushing cheeks and those watery, affectionate eyes, she felt almost unrecognizable to herself.

In her mind, she replayed the image of Mr. Major General undressing over and over again. Alright! She confessed she had sneaked several peeks before being caught.

It was a delightful view; if she could watch it every day, she would be willing to trade years of her life... No, no, no! Keep calm.

Lin Fu turned on the cold water and splashed it on her face, but nothing could quell the heat flushing her cheeks. However, recalling her own disheveled bathrobe, revealing her shoulders and an unobstructed view of her chest, and that he hadn't so much as glanced extra at her,

while she had been the more flustered one, felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over her.

She instantly regained her composure.

The humiliation was reversed; it was too embarrassing.

She was too ashamed to face anyone.

She was done playing. Let the universe be destroyed! She wanted to return to Earth.

***

In his room, Fu Xing elegantly and calmly continued to unfasten the buttons of his military uniform, changed out of his clothes, and slipped into a dark blue, casual, long home garment. The special material of the clothing, with details tailored to display the exquisite splendor unique to nobles, added a luxurious touch.

He seemed less stern at the moment, yet there was an added sense of breathtaking, distinguished beauty.

The Fu Family's unique gentleness and elegance were personified in him to the utmost, causing noble ladies to say that just one glance at Mr. Major General was enough to experience the sensation of heartbreak.

The room was spacious, and Fu Xing habitually poured himself a glass of wine to sip in front of the window, contemplating how to face his young wife.

Yet, a distinctive delicate fragrance in the air teased his typically stoic and undisturbed heart like an invisible hand lightly stirring.

He finished the wine in his glass and turned to head to his study to deal with military affairs. Just as he arrived at the door, the bathroom door burst open with a clang.

Lin Fu's face was still dotted with fresh droplets of water, and as she blinked her watery eyes, she asked with nervous shyness, "Um... are you going to take a bath?"
